This is spiritual support, not therapy. If the weight feels too heavy, or you have thoughts of harming yourself, please reach out now to someone you trust or to a professional. If you are in immediate danger, call your local emergency number. To find a free, confidential helpline in your country, use the international directory findahelpline.com. We do not list phone numbers here because we cannot keep them checked for every country.
